Circuit Design Engineer

Role: Circuit Design Engineer

Client: Defense-Aerospace

Hourly Rate: up to $71/hr (W2, non-benefited)

Length: 1-year contract

Location: Orlando, FL - Hybrid

Shift: 4x10, 1 st Shift

Clearance: Due to the nature of work performed within our facilities, an Active Secret Clearance is required prior to start.

Position Description:

• Own the full product lifecycle for control circuit assemblies (CCA)
• Develop detailed schematics and PCB layouts using industry standard tools.
• Create comprehensive verification plans, to confirm that the CCA meets all electrical, timing, and safety requirements.
• Work closely with servo system specialists and subject matter experts to define control algorithms, feedback loops, and interface requirements
• Collaborate with mechanical and packaging engineers to resolve board level constraints.
• Liaise with external silicon and PCB vendors, providing clear design files, bill of materials (BOM), and manufacturing instructions; support prototype fabrication, assembly, and yield analysis activities.
• Generate and maintain complete design documentation.
• Core days in office: Tuesday and Wednesday. Flex WFH days Monday or Thursday. Dependent on program needs. Required 3 days a week on site.

Required Skills:

• Relevant circuit‑card design experience (schematic capture and PCB layout)
• Ability to perform analog and mixed‑signal circuit analysis and simulation

Desired Skills

• Update design requirements and coordinate servo requirements
• Update schematics incorporating servo and SME feedback
• Perform power, stability, ADC/DAC accuracy, electrical‑stress, and signal‑quality analyses
• Conduct EE implementation and packaging implementation reviews
• Complete layout & routing (constraints, stack‑up, EPCAD support)
• Support packaging prerelease review and DVT/test‑plan creation
• Assist CCA fabrication (PWB vendor coordination, component procurement, CCA population)
• Conduct initial testing (inspection, bench test, DVT, integration support)
• Proficiency with Mentor Graphics, Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or comparable tools
• Strong background in analog/mixed‑signal design, power electronics, and control‑loop theory
• Experience with SPICE‑based simulation and signal‑integrity analysis tools
• Familiarity with ADC/DAC selection, voltage‑level translation, and EMI/EMC mitigation techniques
• Prior work on laser or directed‑energy weapon systems or high‑energy electromagnetic applications
• Knowledge of military standards and qualification processes
• Experience with vendor management, low‑volume high‑reliability PWB fabrication, and component sourcing
• Familiarity with system‑integration testing and hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) simulation environments

Required Education and Experience:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field
